IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 75103 accession number: C.44-1911 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Monday 25 March 2024 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: fritware, moulded, painted in brown and blue with outlining in black, under a transparent glaze. Shape: rectangular with a plain rim, the shorter sides are lobbed, sits on a low rectangular foot ring. Interior: rim is painted brown, below which a frieze of dots is contained within two lines. On the base a floral spray emanates from a stylised hillock. Exterior: panel decoration reflects the shape of the vessel. On the two longest sides a bird sits surrounded by leaves and flowers, painted in reserve against a blue background. On the shorter lobbed sides, a central panel contains a fleurs de-lis shape in which two stylised flowers are painted in reserve against a blue background. These central panels are flanked either side by vertical friezes of quatre-foil flowers, again painted in reserve against a blue background. A pair of blue lines is painted on the foot ring. The glaze does not cover the rim of the foot but does continue onto the underside, albeit with uneven coverage. An irregular blue dot is present on the underside of the foot ring but this does not appear to be a mark. object type: fritware painted in brown, blue and black under a transparent glaze title: bowl NOTES ----- type: history note value: From the Joseph Dixon Collection, sold at Christie’s, 16th-17th March, 1911, lot 132 LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Applied Arts creditline: Given by the Friends of the Fitzwilliam Museum STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/75103 SUBJECTS ------------------- bird floral spray bird floral spray TECHNIQUES ---------- fritware, moulded, painted in brown and blue with outlining in black, under a transparent glaze moulding TECHNIQUES ---------- painting underglaze TECHNIQUES ---------- glazing (coating) CATEGORIES ------ category: fritware DATING ------ creation date: 1600 - 1699 creation date earliest: 1600 creation date latest: 1699 culture: 17th Century CREATORS -------- maker: Unknown DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: cm value: 5.1 dimension: Weight units: g value: 131 dimension: Width units: cm value: 12 EXHIBITIONS HISTORY ------------------- title: Kings, Satraps and Shahs: Persian coinage through the ages CITATIONS -------- The Collection of Rhodian, Damascus, Persian and Hispano-Mauro Faience of the Late Joseph Dixon, Esq.
